Gah, people, stop saying "bug, bug, bug" the game is FULLY PLAYABLE and FULLY SOLVABLE, it does NOT crash or send you to the wrong screen, and things like the magnet not disappearing in the side view are NOT BUGS! They're missing features that might have been implemented if the dev had remembered or felt like doing a little more in MS Paint, but the game is fine without them. Personally I think they add to the kind of sloppy, silly vibe which is very fitting for a game titled "MS Paint Escapers 0."

Edit: While I stand by what I said for things like side views that don't affect gameplay (i.e. the magnet), the sundial's hand and shadow being invisible in the detail window could be considered a bug. So I'm sorry for jumping to conclusions. If you restart the game and look at the sundial's face before solving the lamp puzzle, it seems to fix it. If you don't want to bother with that, the below message should allow you to bypass it (and also skip most of the game):

A bug isn't necessarily gamebreaking. This is a test game, and so bugs are to be expected, and positive feedback to the developer can be very helpful. Making the dev aware of a visual bug can be very helpful, as I can attest as someone who has worked on one or two games before. There isn't any need to get mad at people for pointing out something to the developer if they aren't being rude about it.

I understand, and I'm not against people pointing out things like that. It's just that most of the feedback seems pretty negative to me, and several comments seemed to imply, "my experience with this game was ruined by these inconsistencies." Anyway, for a game which I believe was created as an attempt to practice and improve the game creation process, such criticism should be made more along the lines of "here's something to watch out for next time," rather than describing things as "bugs," which is associated with an expectation of bug fixes. So perhaps I'm just misinterpreting, or I don't really understand how that word is used, but it really, well... bugged me.

Edit: I found the thing people described as a bug. I didn't get it at all the first time, and the magnet thing being the way it was led me to believe that the sundial thing was the same. It's not, and that could reasonably be described as a bug, so I'm editing replies.
